8 October 2018

A worker who installed a 31 stone (200kg) sign above a bookmakers which fell and crushed a man has actually told a court it was "a great fix" when he put it up.

had actually been operating in London for four months when he was squashed by the sign outside a William Hill bookmakers on 28 January 2013.

Carlos Park informed Blackfriars Crown Court the fascia he connected the sign to had actually been "strong".

William Hill Organisation Ltd rejects breaching health and security.

New Zealand national Mr Marx, 27, suffered a damaged neck and a fractured skull after the sign fell 2m on to him outside the bookmakers in Camden Road.

The court heard Mr Park was working for Saltwell Signs when he fitted the yohaig code check in 2006.

He told the jury he had actually got a "good repair" to the plywood fascia when screwing it up.

"The fascia was solid. I can inform when I am taking the screws out (of the old indication)," he stated.

Mr Park stated he carried out a visual evaluation of the plywood "to see there is not any rot" but added that the fascia "should be fit for function when I turn up."

Former Saltwell's factory supervisor Terrance English told the court the indication fitter was not responsible for checking the structure's structure.

When asked by John Cooper, protecting William Hill, if the fitter had no responsibility for the structure listed below he stated: "Yes, just the fascia, not the structure itself."

William Hill Organisation Ltd denies one count of failing to ensure the security of non-employees and one count of stopping working to ensure the safety of workers.

the yohaig code trial continues.
